Seahawks OTAs: JSN, Dee Eskridge stand out; Bobby Wagner back in his old role
New York TimesRENTON, Wash. — The third phase of the offseason workout program permits the offense and defense to compete against each other, albeit without any contact. Last week, the Seahawks also signed Foster Merrill, who last played for the Chargers, and Austin Faoliu, who played for the XFL’s Seattle Sea Dragons in the spring. If they’re dealing with injuries, that could explain why Seattle agreed to terms Monday with veteran cornerback Artie Burns, according to a league source familiar with the terms of the deal. Quarterback Geno Smith has a relationship with Ohio State assistant coach Brian Hartline — Geno’s cousin Jeremiah Smith is a five-star receiver recruit committed to the Buckeyes — and after speaking to him about Seattle’s rookie receiver and seeing him on the field, Smith believes Smith-Njigba is going to be a “tremendous player.” “He’s so impressive,” Smith said. Jaxon’s been tremendous so far, and I’m looking forward to seeing him grow.” GO DEEPER 'I think there's no ceiling for me': Why Jaxon Smith-Njigba fits the Seahawks perfectly 5.
